The NY Times view is a lie. Please don’t tell me you believe it.
I’m inclined to believe their anti-Mccain bias affected the decision, but it’s probably not a complete fabrication. Mccain has written plenty of NYT editorials, at least one even this year.
Mccain is no idiot. His campaign knew it would be rejected and that’s why they chose the NYT. His editorial would get
a barn storm of attention if rejected versus just putting it
in a paper that would print it.
I liked the part where he ties Obama to Bush failures of waving the mission accomplished flag to early.
